hello everybody,

just a quick Q, as my websites went offline for 2 days already and i am thinking of moving to another host, but i want to know other's opinion because we all know that come companies appear like mushrooms after rain and disappear the other day... i need something reliable, most important good up-time / support / reputation etc. something that will not be overpriced, of course.

i heard that godaddy and hostgattor are good but not sure, anyone has experience with them?
i'd deeply appreciate your opinions...

thanks!

I've been with Hostgator for well over 2 years now. Very stable server, and good support.

I've used Godaddy for domain registering services, and had no issues with that, and many reports I read confirm this. However, about their hosting service I read quite a few complaints.

Try a search over at webhostingtalk.com and sitepointforums.com

I would recommend eleven2 Hosting™ | The Managed Hosting Provider

I was with them for almost a year and didn't have any problems, especially with uptime and support. As said above, just search for the company's name on webhostingtalk and you should get some reviews on them (although most of the ones posted on WHT are negative reviews :/ )

**gooshy20** · 09-09-2006, 03:42 PM

I recommend surfspeedy.com. They have unlimited domains hosting and i am very happy with them.

**Arez20469** · 09-10-2006, 12:36 AM

1and1.com is the best I have ever seen price wize. $3.74 a month for 50 GBs anyone?

**john551** · 09-10-2006, 07:30 AM

I would recommend Hostgator and bluehost. Both are reliable, stable, and excellent support system.

I've been using GoDaddy for a month and I like it. I shopped around a week or so before I finally settled on it as the best bargain for me. I got a domain and 2 months of hosting (5G storage, 250G trans, PHP, MySQL, forums, blog, etc) for $10. It really depends on what your needs are as to which one is best for you.

Sectorlink - Web Hosting, Managed Dedicated Servers, Domain Registration, Virtual Private Servers

Great pricing, great service, great support, and guys that actually give a **** about their customers. I've been with them 4.5 years now in some capacity and have NEVER been disappointed. (And yes, that's 4.5 years, not months.)

I've had no downtime on any of the sites on my dedicated server, other than reboots for things I installed (and those are planned and last about 2 minutes.) This is going back to December 2003.

If you remember the northeast blackout in August 2003, very few hosts were up...but my boys were. Gas generator backups are a truly wonderful thing.

They're about the only host left that I would trust with anything I'm doing.

I recommend SuppHosting.com

They are new company, but their stuff is well-educated. Good support.
Prices are REALLY reasonable!

GoDaddy are OK as a domain registar. I can say nothing about HostGator. It is better to define waht do you want to use... what kind of services and then to choose a web host. Most sahred hosts are reliable these days. But it is not the same when it comes to customer support.

**seotiger** · 09-14-2006, 11:33 AM

better go for godaddy.com there u can find all the domians availble or not if not availble they will backorder for extent amount so try that it is gud

**johanng** · 09-14-2006, 11:06 PM

**MadHatterTCM** · 09-15-2006, 02:08 AM

I Like Powweb. $7.77/mo

**jetbrains** · 09-15-2006, 02:47 AM

Many people said that HostGator is awesome ,
Someone tiold me that there has database connection limit " in "HostGator", Really?

**The Critic** · 09-15-2006, 04:11 AM

Could be. I know GoDaddy has a limit of 50 simultaneous database connections.

**shanee86** · 09-18-2006, 01:10 AM

I would recommend http:///dotnamehost.com we have great plans and prices and been around almost one year now and not going anywere. We have kept our 99.9% uptime until this month due to ddos attacks but we managed to stop the attacks and block future ones. Anyway we offer unlimited domains hosted and all the features and great support. Thanks I hope you choose us.

**john551** · 09-19-2006, 12:04 PM

I would recommend hostgator. They are simply the best

AFAIR Hostgator has a 25 mysql simultaneous connections limit. However, this would not mean mean in any way that you can only have 25 visitors online on a database driven website, as not all visitors will be asking for data at the very same time.
